Interview with Dr. Katie Gaddini, author of "The Struggle to Stay: Why Single Evangelical Women Are Leaving the Church (Hemant Mehta, The Friendly Atheist podast #423)

"We talked about purity culture, the mixed messages sent to Christian women, and whether their churches do more harm than good. In this solo episode (Jessica will be back next week), I spoke with Dr. Katie Gaddini, a sociologist at the Social Research Institute, University College London and a research associate at the University of Johannesburg, Department of Sociology. She recently released her debut book, The Struggle to Stay: Why Single Evangelical Women Are Leaving the Church, which is based on over four years of in-depth ethnographic research with single evangelical women in the US and the UK. We talked about purity culture, the mixed messages sent to Christian women, and whether their churches do more harm than good."
